General Description
The AT1780 is a current-mode step-up DC/DC
converter with a 1.6A, 0.21Ω power MOSFET.
The soft-start function is programmed with an
external capacitor, which sets the input current
ramp rate. It is ideal for generating bias voltages
for LCD panels. Pin selectable frequency 640KHz
or 1.2MHz operation results in a low noise output
that is easy to filter and faster loop performance.
An external compensation pin provides the user
flexibility in determining loop dynamics, allowing
the use of small, low equivalent series resistance
(ESR) ceramic output capacitors.
